As the dominant organizing principle for the early modern period, Atlantic history moves beyond national boundaries and anachronistic applications of later political divisions The course content is variable, but possible offerings include “Pirates, Sailors, and Whalers in the Atlantic World” and
“Witchcraft in the Atlantic World.” This course may be repeated for credit, but students may study a single topic in Atlantic History only once.
